Summary: The best book I've ever read...
Review: After reading this book, it immeadiately became my favorite. It's not just a story about good defeating evil, man against nature, or woman against man for that matter. It's all those and more. It opens up new thoughts in your mind you never even knew were there, and urges you to question all you see. This book left me feeling satified, both intellectually and spiritually, and I recommend it to anyone who is looking for an amazing read.

Summary: Attention all Magic fans: get this book Now!
Review: Aylith and Nazir was cool, but I think I liked the relation ship between Lorris and Aylith's cousin Jedhian best. I mean come on, it's cool when they get together. Jedhian-hmmm sounds like a star wars name. I wish the relationship between Aylith and Nazir had lengthened though.

Summary: How much better can a cursed land get?
Review: I first started playing Magic a few months back, and I didn't even know at the time that there were books to go along with the game. I found this out on the last day of school, when a friend of mine showed me a few books of his...the Cursed Land being one of them. I was immediatly pulled by it and borrowed it. And loved it. It's been a long time since I've read such a wonderful book. The charater of Aylith is believable, she is not just your ordinary, run of the mill type heroine. She's beyond that. Her desires were that of an ordiary 20 year old, and she doesn't fall into the pattern of a mage immediatly, like so many have their magic workers do. Nazir was a remarkable villian, if you can call him that. In short, a wonderful, must read for any serious fantasty lover, even those that don't read or play Magic. I truely hope that you'll give this book a chance. It's too good to pass up. Ja ne Dremdancer

Summary: One of the best books I've EVER read
Review: I loved it, this book had nothing missing, and it kept me thinking, I stayed up all night with it, but still felt strangly intellectually awakened the next day. I can't think of a better book.

Summary: Marvelous book...worth reading over and over again!
Review: Teri McLaren weaves a tapestry of incredible proportions before the readers' eyes in The Cursed Land. It's beyond words. Her book is a must-read - even for those who have never heard of Magic: the Gathering.
Sunshine wafts upon the villages with the opening. Teri's brilliant descriptions bring vitality and resplendence to what would normally be mundane. The author is also concise and unwasteful of words, even though her tale does not lose any flair or get too "skinny". By the end of the first chapter, the life force of the Island of Cridhe has been destroyed, a few people meet unfortunate fates, the stars have fallen and the earth has turned inside out...and yet the story is still amazingly coherent and pleasurable to read. In the space of a few words Teri can create a chasm the size of the Grand Canyon and a villain who makes all of those slimy bad guys from other books seem tame. With her winding and sinuous story the author keeps the reader from falling over the rail. When you flip to the exhilarating ending (which is probably the best possible closing to the story there could be), you'll feel like you've been through a long journey...and you'll want to go back again. The Cursed Land warrants repeated reading, for who can hear the deadly lullabies of the magical shrouds, view the shimmering acorn of the Clan Tree, and witness the equinox itself only once?

Summary: A Good Way to Escape the Story Behind the Card Sets.
Review: Teri McLaren's The Cursed Land is a brilliant book. However, there are just far too many characters to memorize, thus, restricting me to rate this four stars rather than five. The story may get boring at times but there is lots of action to make up for it. The writing is also good enough to keep you interested. If you want to take a break from all that Urza, Yawgmoth, Weatherlight, Dominaria stuff but you still want to read a Magic the Gathering book, The Cursed Land is for you. Just don't give up on looking for it even though it is out of print.

Review: This book does not even relate to the popular card game "Magic: The Gathering". The characters and settings are unique and unforgetable. This book is a must for any library. Teri McLaren takes you out of this world and beyond. It is a book of love and friendship and a dieing world that must be saved by good and evil. About the love, it doesn't occur till the end guys so don't freak out just because I said love

Summary: You will NOT buy this book!
Review: This book has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with the game (Magic the Gathering). The only thing that relates to the game that I could find in this book is the word 'mana'. But then again, you can find the word 'mana' in many other non-MtG books. I guess that the other people that gave this book a positive review are not Magic the Gathering players. This book is a total ripoff. If you want to buy this book anyway, make sure you read it BEFORE great MtG books such as Arena, The Thran, the Artifacts cycle's, etc. That way those books will only be greater!
